EPA says Glyphosate is Not an Endocrine Disruptor: Chemical Manipulation of Humanity

Do you believe the EPA? Do you trust their science? I don't.
Despite an abundance of evidence linking glyphostate with endocrine disruption and all the resulting diseases, the so called Environmental Protection Agency, the EPA, says glyphosate is not an EDC.AGProfessional

This has been a difficult couple of months for glyphosate following
the International Agency for Research on Cancer’s (IARC) recent classification of glyphosate as a group 2A “probable carcinogen”.
Now, though, we’ve got the formal confirmation of something we knew all
along: glyphosate doesn’t pose any threat to the endocrine system.

"We've got the "formal confirmation". What interesting language! Not the evidence. Not the conclusive evidence. No the "formal confirmation" of what 'we' (Monsanto) has known and claimed all along. Talk about manipulative language!

Since 2009, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been
reviewing the test orders (requests for data) of several widely used
herbicides and pesticides, including glyphosate, as part of the
Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program (EDSP). Endocrine disruptors
are chemicals that can interfere with hormone systems and cause adverse
developmental, reproductive, neurological, and immune effects in
mammals. Glyphosate was included in the programme purely because of its
extensive use and therefore high exposure potential, not because it was
deemed to be particularly hazardous.

The EPA has been reviewing 'test orders' requests for data. Who provided the data? It's not stated. So obviously the petro chemical companies provided the data

On 29 June, the EPA released a memorandum
concluding that “glyphosate demonstrates no convincing evidence of
potential interaction with estrogen, androgen or thyroid pathways in
mammals.” It also said that the next level of testing “is not
recommended for glyphosate since there was no convincing evidence of
potential interaction with estrogen, androgen or thyroid pathways.” In
short, glyphosate doesn’t pose any threat to the endocrine system.
This is reassuring news for the millions of farmers around the world
who use glyphosate-based products to control weeds in their fields and
protect their harvests. Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup,
the world’s best selling weed killer, is currently up for its routine, 10-year renewal by the European Union. The
review has made glyphosate a target of anti-pesticide activists
worldwide and the subject of many a negative social media campaign.

At Monsanto, we are committed to providing farmers, regulators and
consumers with regular updates on glyphosate safety and benefits
research. We know our products present no unacceptable risks when used
in accordance with instructions, while they do offer farmers and society
significant value. The EPA’s finding provides a factual, science-based
response to all the unscientific nonsense about glyphosate that seems to
dominate social media.

Monsanto is reassuring us their product is safe. They provided the data and the EPA rubber stamped it. Scientism at it's finest-Corporate cronyism on full display.

How is your garden doing Penny? My tomatoes are still a little behind, but at least beginning to fruit now, squash is likely a write off as it is so far behind :( Peppers don't seen overly happy this year either :( But, basil has gone nuts? Everyone else is puttering along like usual... roundup free of course ;)

I think I killed the groundhog after it decided to tunnel right beside my foundation (it already at ALL my beans and peas). If he isn't dead yet, my next step is mustard gas ;)

Peppers are doing poorly- We will likely pull some out and try to save those that we can. Our tomatoes are doing really well, none to eat yet..Lettuce, which we planted early- cause it can take the cool has now boltedbut heck it lasted way longer then usualWe have also been eating peas and zucchiniit seems we are getting some powdery mildew issues...

summer here has been cooler and wetter then usual- but that never makes the news- as the push the AGW agenda and focus on the hotter areas

The opposite is true for cities from Ontario east to Atlantic Canada where temperature were 1ºC to 3ºC below normal.

All the hype has been on the western temperatures- because cooler then normal for what the 3rd or 4th year in a row doesn't sell carbon credits does it?

No pest problems at all, no bugs, nothingand no pesticides usagewe had a baby rabbit- so we left a patch of grass for it to munch on (it was full of clover etc.,) and it never bothered the gardenwe 'fought' the birds for our mulberries, but, did manage to get some..

no groundhogs around these parts- they have better place to hang out then the yardgot to see a fox yesterday while I was out for my bike ride! so that was cool :)

Stop being Manipulated by the Elites

For if you [the rulers] suffer your people to be ill-educated, and their manners to be corrupted from their infancy, and then punish them for those crimes to which their first education disposed them, what else is to be concluded from this, but that you first make thieves [outlaws] and then punish them.´ - Sir Thomas More (1478-1535)

Edward Bernays: Perception Management it is a Reality

"The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society,"

"Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. . . . In almost every act of our daily lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons . . . who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind."
